Climate Change
On climate change, McKeon has expressed his desire to see the topic raised to the top of both the "political and public agenda". He said "We may not have all the answers to what is occurring, ... ut the point is, why wouldn't one take out very strong insurance to at least do what we can to future-proof our well-being?".

Famous quotes containing the words climate and/or change:
“Russian forests crash down under the axe, billions of trees are dying, the habitations of animals and birds are layed waste, rivers grow shallow and dry up, marvelous landscapes are disappearing forever.... Man is endowed with creativity in order to multiply that which has been given him; he has not created, but destroyed. There are fewer and fewer forests, rivers are drying up, wildlife has become extinct, the climate is ruined, and the earth is becoming ever poorer and uglier.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“The will to change begins in the body not in the mind
My politics is in my body, accruing and expanding with every act of resistance and each of my failures.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
